Is It Always N Behavior to Violate Others' Boundaries?

[Twoapenny]

I think you're right Bones, animals use their senses more than we do, or trust them more is probably more accurate!  I  think we're taught to ignore them but animals aren't so they do get a good sense of who to sit with.  I love it when cats head bump!  It's so cute.  Mine does a little chirruping sound when she comes in from the garden, as if she's letting us know she's home   She doesn't like having visitors so she hides upstairs if we have people over and when they've gone she comes down and has this really cross miaow that she does while she stomps around making sure they've left, it's so funny.

I hope they sort all the other shots out for you, do you have to have all of these every year now or do they just do it once and that covers you endlessly? xx

I know I have to do the Flu shot every year because that virus mutates so frequently.  As for the Shingles and Pneumonia vaccines, I don't know yet as those are fairly new to me.  I know the TDaP has to be repeated after a certain number of years have elapsed as that immunity tends to fade after so many years.

Cats are SO funny where visitors are concerned.

Many, many decades ago when I was younger and much stupider, I had a brief fling with a good-looking dude.

Recently, as I was researching my late Dad's ancestry, (whose history I did NOT know about until 1997), I discovered that the good-looking dude is my SIXTH COUSIN!!!!

Talk about AWKWARD!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh Bones!  That is such a shock!  I have heard stories like that before, where people have discovered they are distant relations after becoming friends or romantically attached.  It must be an odd sensation?!  Does he know what you've discovered as well?  I hope the shock wears off soon, it's a big bit of news!  Hope you're okay xx

He and his siblings don't know yet.

I think I found his sister on Ancestry and I sent a brief message about finding empirical data about her ancestors.  I want to explain the facts, with the data, before that bombshell gets dropped.

Sounds sensible to me, Bones.  My Lord, what a finding.  Do they all live near you still or are these distant relatives far away geographically as well? xx

Most of them are in the midwest while I'm on the east coast so, geographically, we are hundreds of miles apart.

Gosh Bonesie, well at least that means you won't bump into each other when you're out buying groceries and they can digest the info in their own time and have a bit of head space to take it all in.  I hope the situation goes as well as it can; it's very weird how people can kind of find each other when they don't know they're related - almost like something kind of pulls people together.  I hope the situation settles down okay xx

Me too.  It's a lot to process.

Hi Bones,
Do you feel better about the sixth-cousin thing?

That seems so far removed that I don't see it as skeevy in any way.

I hope you have happy memories.

There are some historical precedents such as Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt along with Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley.

[Hopalong]

Amen.
And millions more never in recorded history, I'm sure.

You done nothing wrong.

Hops

[BonesMS]

Amen.

You done nothing wrong.

Hops

I know I've done nothing wrong.

This situation came about because I knew NOTHING about my Dad's family.  Why is that?  Because egg-donor did NOTHING BUT LIE ALL THE TIME!!!

Feeling scared right now.

I recently had a CT scan to try and locate where various kidney stones have been hiding.

In addition to the kidney stones, the CT scan showed a new mass inside my abdomen and they don't know what it is.  I'm seeing a specialist about it next week.

[Hopalong]

I'm so sorry to hear this, Bones.
How scary. How brave you are.

I hope you'll have a positive answer soon,
and that you'll find real support so you don't
face anything hard too alone.

Will be thinking of you. Much light your way.
